He was released by the Falcons and lost his contract, which he had to pay back his bonus money. Vick got everything he deserved for making such a poor decision to take part in this dog fighting ring. It's time to forgive him and give him a chance to move on with his life. If he can produce on the football field he will get a chance. The NFL is a business and if you produce than you will have a place on a NFL team. How many chances did they give Koren Robinson? Leonard Little ( DUI Manslaughter). Funny how Matt Jones WR ( Jaguars) got busted with Cocaine in a vehicle and it was such a small story in the NFL. I guess if your not A big time star than its not news worthy. Give Vick a chance to redem himself. I love animals but he did not kill a human. It was wrong but we all make mistakes.
I think it has a lot to do with the crime. I lot of people love dogs and to picture someone hurting dogs offends a great deal of people. Even Hollywood stays away from abusing or killing animals in movies. I watch a ton of horror films that are supper graphic you hardly ever see a dog hurt in them and you never see a baby hurt. People are very senstive to both dogs and babies. I guess because both represent pure unconditationaly love.
